Kara-korum would never have been called a range, had it not been the divide of
two important basins.
He concludes that Saunders' view would be correct if it had been said that
the water-parting was situated on the plateau, and that the boundaries of the plateau,
Kwen-lun and Muz-tagh, were broken through by the rivers rising on the plateau.
»My protest (in which I should have expected Mr. Saunders' support) is raised against
the practice of tracing out on the map a line dividing the headwaters of the streams
belonging to separate basins and then assuming that along that line, and there only,
runs a range.»
*On the Kara-koram mountains* was the title of an article in which SAUNDERS
answered SHAW.¹ Here he proves that the name Mus-tagh should not be used instead
of Kara-korum, which belongs to the whole system. Shaw's Eastern Mus-tag he
prefers to treat as a secondary feature, whereas the water-parting is the main axis
of the system. Saunders' Kara-korum Range terminates at the head of the Kara-
kash River.
It should be remembered that the eastern end of the Kara-koram lies between the
headwaters of the Karakash and those which feed the lakes and swamps of the Lingzethung
Plain, where the Gangri system begins. It is the connection of the Gangri system with
the Karakoram that Mr. Shaw is invited to solve, so as to connect his Mustak with it in
a symmetrical manner.
It was a mistake of the time and a mistake which existed still in 1910 that
one could talk at all of the eastern end of the Kara-korum. And it is absurd to
call the Lingzitang a kind of boundary mark between the Kara-korum and the
Gangri System, *i. e.* Transhimalaya. Still, it is a very sound and clever thought
Saunders expressed in putting up as a desideratum the settling of the question
whether or not the Transhimalaya is connected with the Kara-korum. This is in-
deed the case with the southern Kara-korum, whereas the northern is connected with
the Tang-la.
Shaw again replies.² He defends his views and proves that the Kara-korum
cannot possibly be at the same time the name of the water-parting on the plateau,
and of the range which is the south-western boundary of that plateau.
If Mr. Saunders desires a systematic nomenclature for the actual facts of that region,
I offer him the Karakoram plateau (a subdivision of the Tibetan plateau), bounded by the
Kuen-lun range on the north-east, and by the Eastern Muzták on the south-west, both of
which are penetrated by the streams rising on the plateau on either side of the Karakoram
water-parting which is in places marked by a ridge and in places unmarked and almost
imperceptible on the open plains of the table-land. How and where the south-western
boundary range and the water-parting coalesce further east in the Gangri range, which
